There are 2 reasons - the nicotine and the oral fixation.
Nicotine will give you a buzz the first couple of times you use it, but that fades quickly. Nicotine will also calm nerves in those addicted, primarily because the addiction is causing the anxiety.
The oral fixation is similar to others who chew on pencils, bite their nails, or eat excessively. Some people have extra sensitive nerves in their mouth that give them urges to keep their mouth busy and dip (along with spitting) relieves this.
I know, I used dip for 20 years. I quit many times, long enough to get the nicotine out of my system, but it was the oral fixation that kept getting me hooked back on.
Get your friend a couple of tins of herbal snuff. Hooch Snuff makes the best imo, as i feels like tobacco. You can get it at http://www.hoochsnuff.com/. This will help with the oral fixation as he gets off the nicotine. You may still think it is nasty, but at least it is healthier. And if you really want to know, you can try the Hooch Snuff without puking.

It's vile. I'm former military and most of the guys that I was stationed with did it. One of my roommates used the same milk jug to spit in for weeks at a time. I think that it's an addiction just like smoking. There's nothing good or healthy about it. I wouldn't know what is going thru a girl's mind, but I wouldn't even kiss a girl that smoked. Try to get him to stop by letting him know how much you dislike it. Maybe he'll chew gum instead. Good luck.

It is a tough habit to kick. Get him to the dentist and he will get a scary lecture. Why he does it because the first time you try it you get a mild buzz, You do it a few more time and the nicotine has you.
